Video Review: NEW SGP Neo Hybrid EX Bumper Case - Galaxy S II Accessories

Hey guys,
Got my hands on the new SGP Neo Hybrid EX, a variant of the original Neo Hybrid. It is a much simpler case, they've removed the back silicone and turned it into a bumper that wraps around your phone. Really pleased with the case, looks great and feels nice. You can check out the full review below:

imo, this one is built if you're using those extended batt packs. the original neo hybrid is still better at least the back is protected with the original one

I like this hope to use with extended battery 2000 mAh.

Thanks for the great reviews. This looks like another winner for SGP.
I like the fact that you showed you could actually use an extended battery with this bumper.

You're welcome! I thought, since the back was left fully exposed, it should have allowed battery covers to work just fine, and it did

thanks for another nice review. I wish we could order a bumper without the hole for korean version... I dont need that hole, i want a bumper that fully cover the side
Whats your top choice for protection wtih mugen 3200maH battery? At the moment im using Glas screen with Taurus bumper, but I need to chance it.

Glas screen shield for sure - as for the bumpers, this is a good option (although a bit pricey), the Walnutt bumper looks nice as well but I have not tried it.
Most will do the same job, it is just the looks/design that change.
Hope I helped

A SGP EX without korean hole would be nice, it would make the top right corner last longer, it wouldnt *break*

Thunderbolt Gel Case

Anyone have any recommendations for some good gel casing, just got my phone about 2 weeks ago but not looking for any hard casing for the bulkiness , just a nice gel case to protect if any fall damage
I wouldn't call it gel, but I have the ringke case and it's fantastic. You can find a coupon code online and only pay $10, free shipping.
http://www.rearthusa.com/HTC-ThunderBolt_p_156.html
Second on the Ringke case. It's been excellent.
The silicon case they sell at the Verizon store has worked well enough for me. Make sure to get the glossy one, otherwise it will pick up pocket lint.
read reviews and im hooked with it, got the price down to 13.00 with only working coupon code i found weare2cool, got the audio jacks seeing i never use them, hopefully it was a good buy ^_^
The only problem I found with the Ringke is it covers the sensor a little bit.

Mine doesn't?
Is the ringke case just a plain silicone case or is it like the TPU material that does't gather lint? I am looking for cases but the silicone ones get stuck on things when my phone is in my pocket and pulls things out of my purse with it. Haha.
Ringke case FTMFW! I was one of the lucky ones that was sent a free one and I LOVE it. If it actually ever stretches out, Ill be buying another one and Id recommend it to anyone thats not looking for something bulky.
This is the review I wrote on it

OH! Yes, it does cover up the proximity sensor a little, but I personally cut a tiny triangle where the sensor is. It didnt ruin the "Structural Integrity" of the case so to speak, but my sensor works perfect.
I got the Ringke but to me it seems just like scratch protection witch is not bad, but i rather have protection from a drop, the glass on TB is easy to break iv fixed a few of these. I might just stick to my insideo case i have for now. But the ringke is very nice.

Does ringke have one to work with the extended battery?
Also where is the proximity sensor located?

sorry to butt in on the thread here, but is there a gel case for the Seidio extended battery to or just the stock?
Bought one!
Hello friend,
If you want to protect your phone from any damage, then at amazon.com you can find the excellent quality of HTC thunderbolt case that will give you 100% protection from any kind of damage.
the "gel" case they sell at the verizon store for the stock TB is decent. however, if you have an extended battery, do not get the ones on amazon for $12.99 that they offer in multiple colors. i got the black one and it feels kind of loose(especially around the extended battery and the sides) + it's not cut correctly in back where the kick stand comes out and it's a bit of a pain to use the kick stand.
i'd like to find a good quality one for the extended battery... possibly even that mugen 4500 battery if i end up getting that(which i probably will eventually)
Try handhelditems.com they have cheap and good cases

I just got mine today,took them 2 Weeks to get here, but I am quite impressed! Great packaging, they even included a green Android key ring chain ..
The case quality is really good, fits well & it doesn't add bulk (around 1mm thick), it feels great in hand & it ads more grip to the phone.
Highly recommended if u want a tpu case.
Think I'll order a second one (black) cos mine is the clear black case (semi transparent) & I think the full black one will make the device look better with all those black edges & corners.
Cheers

It does add bulk, but less than I would have expected. What I really like about the Nillkin TPU case:
+ Its very nice to hold due to the texture on the sides
+ Its easy to slip in and out of your pocket, yet its still pretty flexible
+ The cutouts are perfect
+ No problem using the keys, they still *click* on press
+ The part thats slips around the bezel of the phone is quite thin (compared to other tpu cases), keeping the phone itself, when layed out face down, protected against sand etc. but doesn't add unnecessary bulk.
I guess TPU cases get better as they go as this one is the best Ive used so far
Hop this helps someone!

hi. that eBay link has solid black version, just have to tell them when you buy.
why don't you get this one until the stand version comes out?

does it add bulk to the phone? wats the thickness of the material used?
That case is quite nice.
I wonder why there are two holes above the stylus.

nice looking cases
very nice. I ordered the clear blue one. it just looks so...sleek
Available in China today, 2.5 pounds, ordered one just now, will be delivered tomorrow.

[REVIEW][VIDEO] Speck PixelSkin HD

Hey everyone,
Just got the PixelSkin HD case in the mail today & did a short video review.
Check it out and feel free to post any comments you may have!
Thank you for the review.
So, after 24 hours with this case, I really like it.
It's definitely more firm than the Diztronic, and the material isn't as soft as other cases, so there is virtually NO lint attraction which is nice. It's thinner than I thought upon first opening, and it fits VERY snug to the phone - great fit.
If you want an understated case with a little bit of flash & very high quality - don't hesitate to pick this up.
What about the volume and power buttons? Are they broken in yet?
It looks better than I thought; still a tad expensive.
Thanks for the review
Not a fan of covers that don't have cutouts for the power and volume buttons. Case looks nice though.
Yeah, button covers are still pretty stiff, though it only took me a day to get used to them. Another thing I forgot to point out is that there is no opening for the 3 pin connector. Personally, that's a plus for me as I think it looks better.

Slightly off topic. But how do you like your extended battery? Would it make any sense to get one if you had the spare battery charger and battery kit already?

Ditto for the GSM question.
I have a Cruiser A2 Black, currently on my Galaxy Nexus gsm, and I absolutely despise it. The Pixel Skin HD is my favorite iPhone case and I was crestfallen when the website states that it was only for the Verizon version. Someone have both?

Suggest Of A Case

Hellow everyone,
I am really searching to find something good to protect my Htc One but in the same time to not make it double or triple of it;s original size.
I was seeing the Incipio Products Like Feather, Frequency And Carbon Fiber , also the Htc One Original Cases .Plus would be nice to buy these alluminiun cases??? What you would suggest me to buy. By the way along with the case i am planning to buy a screen protector like the Mime Ghost Glass for Htc one.
Your Opinions would be very helpfull.
I bought this case: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-FlipBo...qid=1377379829&sr=8-3&keywords=htc+one+poetic
It's slim and looks good. Doesn't provide a crazy amount of protection but it's enough for me to not worry about it in my pocket or setting it down anywhere, and I like the flipbook style. You can also still use a screen protector with it.

funny, on this link, with the phone in the case, it looks like there are cut-outs for the camera (and the noise cancellation mic), but there is on picture of the entire case without the phone in it, and there appears to be no cutouts for the camera. I would imagine that there ARE cutouts for the camera, no?

Yes, there are two cutouts on the back: one for the camera/flash and another for the mic. You're right though, the pics are misleading. I had seen this case in the wild before I bought it so I knew what I was getting. Also for that price you can't really go wrong.

Well i was thinkinh the Incipio Dual Pro with Silicone...
Just tried a skin and bumper combo. Best compromise between protection and looks IMO. Nothing will top an otterbox for protection, but makes phone very bulky and it overheats too easily when using navigation.

this one I got a few weeks back, and it is the best case I could imagine for the One! Protection all around, wrapping over the edgres where the screen is. All buttons covered solid, and these covers help to push the Power/Vol buttoms. I can only say, I am totally happy with this case! A bit pricey, but worth every penny. Gives the One a real trendy look, and is available in different colours- I got the black/black one

Looking for first case

Hey guys.
I just bought a black nexus 5 and I am looking for a case.
I come from an iPhone, which has a LOT of case offer xD
So I was just wondering which cases do you guys personally use and which ones would you recommend.
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, so I apologize in advance :-/

I personally use the zerolemon battery case its amazing.
When I'm at home I use my spigen slim armor.
Both are great. The ultra hybrid isn't very good due to dust getting in the case
I like the fact that the spigen slim armor has the tow parts that you can change, its pretty cool!!
Thanks for your answer.
I use the tech 21 impactology case. Doesn't look like much but its probably saved my N5 2 dozen times already.

The older version used to allow dust getting in.
I have the "updated" model, pretty much air-tight.
Only downside is the shiny back, but I love my case! :angel:
I bought a "Ringke Slim case" in white off Amazon UK. Very nice fit, but get the rubberised version. The white one is as slippy as a bar of soap :silly: Other than that, a case for a bargain price, with a great fit and overall quality!
I really like my black wallet case. :good:
